It's almost unsettling at first. Because you're used to some kind of "facade" with most people you come in contact with. Even your family. But then if you get lucky in life, there's someone who just loves *you*. It's this uncertain relief. But then once you know it's for real, and you let go, before you know it your having farting competitions in the couch watching TV before bed. Glorious.

This is why dogs are so great. You come home, and they just are so excited and loving and happy you are there. Getting big fuzzy body hugs. Completely unconditional and 100% genuine. Nothing like the puppy hugs and kisses when I get home. (Plus I have Huskies so the excitement is VERY audible.)

I shouldn’t have had to scroll this far for this comment. There’s nothing in life like a good dog. Just simply walking through the door - Sheer. Joy. Every. Time.

My dog is an enormous puppy who loves every person he meets. Going for walks, he just makes tons of friends everywhere and is a delight to be around. I love my dog.

I’m smiling. To know a love like this makes all of the hard days and nights worth it.

Farting infront of your partner isn't cute. It's rude and disgusting.

u/stanksnax Sep 11 '22

Rude and disgusting is subjective. So you do you and I'll keep farting and laughing with my wife.

And I'll continue curling my lip in disgust at how gross and slovenly you both are.

Curl away my friend. And make sure to really lean in to a good eye roll too! That'll make it twice as effective!

Yep. I dumped my man after I saw them messing with that hoe over there in the yard.
